The only downside is that | the initial production run will be for only 1000 units. | mindcrime wrote: | Nice. I imagine it's early to be asking this, but any | (approximate) idea how much the KrakenSDR units will sell | for? | syedkarim wrote: | We are trying really hard to keep it at $299. ___________________________________________________________________ (page generated 2021-08-03 23:00 UTC)
